I'm impressed by the fact that all of them already have display outputs. The APUs must really be around the corner.

Where are the times when the MB have blue or green colors? Now we have all black or black-red colors.Awful. Too many leds on Gigabyte AX370.

PCB colors go through phases. In the 90s and early 2000s, green was the popular color. In the mid 2000s, it was red or blue. Around 2010 it was blue and black. Now it's black with red plastic. It would definitely be nice to have more color variety. Purple, white, green, and yellow are so rare these days (though, yellow tends to be kind of gross looking).

Light Green to Dark Green that all most Black have been around for ages schmidtbag and there is no actual yellow motherboard they on but just been accent plastic here and there and some hat look like yellow where is because of yellow brass trace with clear coat.

No rainbows,no buy. 🤓 #Nohomo. Black-orange is good,but no white-red or black-yellow.

If you don't really care about OC and you want a nice little workstation, the B350 looks like the sweet spot.

B350 still supports overclocking.

Three of the boards are b350's which are the chipset to use with the upcoming APU's. And yes there are 4 different color USB's on that x370 board. Only thin I can think is a liar if them are 3.0 but supplied by a 3rd party controller.

even the x370 board has HDMI though, which is why i ask about if the boards have integrated graphics, or if those video ports are only usable if you have an APU. My assumption is they are not usable if you have an APU. Also, remember guys that Ryzen APUs probably won't be out for awhile, as Bristol Ridge AM4 CPUs (aka Excavator) will be the first to come out for AM4 motherboards, technically they already are, just only from OEM as far as i understand it?

I hope they release a mini-itx with the high end chipset...

i guess finding a b350 board at launch with solid audio component & VRMs that wont sputter & die from a ~15% overvolt OC is asking a little much, judging from these pics? :P helping a friend build a rig, might have to get him an x370 instead unless MSI pulls something out of their hat here...
